Hello Anon

Thank you for writing.

A link has been found between dioxin (used in Agent Orange and in other herbicides) and thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer. Were you exposed to dioxide in Vietnam or elsewhere?

Farmers, farm workers, fruit pickers. crop sprayers etc could also be affected.

Does this sound like a possibility to you?

We look forward to hearing back from you.

Best,
Susan
